About the team
Stripe’s infrastructure team powers businesses all over the world. Our customers trust us with their businesses, and every request that stripe handles is critical. We process billions of dollars every year for millions of users, from the largest enterprises to a startup making their first sale. That is why both world-class reliability and seamless infrastructure scale are considered table stakes to support massive economic transactions for our customers.
We are the team leading Stripe’s reliability and scalability efforts, with focus on delivering world-class availability and certifying Stripe’s systems to handle unprecedented levels of traffic during big events like Black Friday and Cyber Monday as well as our merchants' key events. You can learn more about our contributions on https://stripe.com/newsroom/news/bfcm2023. We own the core preventative reliability platforms and tools used by infrastructure and product teams across the company to build resiliency in their systems and scale them to handle the projected peak load.
We’re looking for an experienced distributed systems engineer with outstanding technical and leadership skills, strong collaboration skills and huge passion for customers to help deliver the foundation of our reliability infrastructure and work with various teams and across the entire stack to deliver world-class reliability solutions. In this role you’ll not only be in charge of designing, implementing and testing your various infrastructure components, but you’ll play an influential role in enabling engineering teams to make their services more reliable by identifying, creating, and deploying engineering practices, processes, and solutions.

Preferred Qualifications:
This role is available either in an office or a remote location (typically, 35+ miles or 56+ km from a Stripe office).
Office-assigned Stripes spend at least 50% of the time in a given month in their local office or with users. This hits a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility about how to do this in a way that makes sense for individuals and their teams.
A remote location, in most cases, is defined as being 35 miles (56 kilometers) or more from one of our offices. While you would be welcome to come into the office for team/business meetings, on-sites, meet-ups, and events, our expectation is you would regularly work from home rather than a Stripe office. Stripe does not cover the cost of relocating to a remote location. We encourage you to apply for roles that match the location where you currently or plan to live.
The annual US base salary range for this role is $209,800 - $314,800. For sales roles, the range provided is the role’s On Target Earnings ("OTE") range, meaning that the range includes both the sales commissions/sales bonuses target and annual base salary for the role. This salary range may be inclusive of several career levels at Stripe and will be narrowed during the interview process based on a number of factors, including the candidate’s experience, qualifications, and location. Applicants interested in this role and who are not located in the US may request the annual salary range for their location during the interview process.
Additional benefits for this role may include: equity, company bonus or sales commissions/bonuses; 401(k) plan; medical, dental, and vision benefits; and wellness stipends.
